Visiting Noah and Landin

Did you know that last Friday there was a tanker crash on I-65 south where 4 tons of deisel were spilled and they closed the interstate completely for like 7 hours? We knew it- we were in the traffic! Marc had worked a 1/2 day Friday and our goal was to make it to Tallahassee, but FOUR HOURS after leaving our home we were finally making it to Montgomery via a LONG detour! Good thing we have the best travelin' 2-year-old in the business- while he came up with different ways to stretch his legs- he never complained.


We FINALLY made it to Dothan around 9:00-9:30 and decided to stop at the "hotayel" (as Julia calls it). The kids LOVE staying in hotels and were just giddy on the pull-out sofa-


Story time with Daddy-


Saturday we got up early and headed onto Aunt Amber and Uncle Dennis' house. What a treat! They have the most wonderful screened-in pool area that the kids played in for HOURS each day. Noah and Marc-



Julia and Landin played pretend the whole time- most of it Julia was Ariel and Landin was Flounder.



Precious girls-



We finally found a combo that Tucker can't sink in- lifejacked PLUS water wings (the puddle jumper let his head still go under if he leaned back)



He was completely independent and could swim all over the pool and jump off the sides by himself- such a happy baby!





Marc and Landin played Mousetrap one morning- they love this game-



Marc and Noah watching TV- they both love Star Wars and How to Train a Dragon-



A wonderful visit with the cousins, but then it was time to head on to the grandparents' home-



Hugging goodbye-



Tuck Tuck LOVES to hug-



Let's all keep praying for Noahbug- he's got some very exciting but totally experimental treatments on the way this summer-



Part 2 of the trip to be continued!
